‘Carpool Karaoke’ Apple Music Spin-Off Series To Have 16 Different Guest Hosts

Apple Music’s spin-off series of ‘Carpool Karaoke’, made incredibly popular by, of course, James Corden, will have 16 different guest hosts.

A sizzle reel was shown at a panel in the US yesterday, as Deadline reports, that showed glimpses of Chelsea Handler, Seth MacFarlane, John Legend and Billy Eichner behind the wheel. Each host will take the reigns of a single episode in the 16-part series, which will be Apple Music’s first. James Corden will make an appearance in one episode.

But who will they all be paired up with? CBS’ Ben Winston revealed how 'The Late Late Show' had been receiving requests from movie stars to do ‘Carpool Karaoke’, hence the move to Apple Music to accommodate them. This will see Corden drive around with Will Smith, while Seth MacFarlane will ferry Ariana Grande from A to B.

Also featuring will be Alicia Keys paired with John Legend, and Metallica with Billy Eichner, the host of the really very good 'Billy on the Street'.

“There’s something about the intimacy of a car,” said Winston, who went on to speak about how that unique setting led to more unique interactions, to a connection, that just doesn’t happen in a TV studio.

1. First up is when James Corden bricked it on the roller coaster with Selena Gomez. Gomez seemed pretty chill, but as the ride hurtled downwards, Corden screamed “OH MY GOD!”

2. If wrestling the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ frontman Anthony Kiedis on a randomer’s front lawn wasn’t enough – only a couple of minutes later the majority of the car was topless and belting out ‘The Zephyr Song’.

3. Next up is when Corden formed a band with Nick Jonas and Demi Lovato. Where did they play their first gig? On the street of course. Where else would have them? ;)

5. If you had a singing voice like Jennifer Hudson, you’d sing all the time, wouldn’t you? Turns out the actual Jennifer Hudson does just that, even ordering at the drive-thru via the medium of song: “YAAAS! I’d like a cheeeeeseburgerrr”.

6. When Skrillex and Diplo released the MASSIVE ‘Where Are Ü Now’, featuring Justin Bieber, even non-Beliebers lost it. So it was only appropriate that Corden lost his s**t with the actual Justin Bieber to that very same song.

7. Stevie Wonder is an incredible artist. Everyone knows this. But not only is he very funny, he’s also kinda sweet, making Corden tear up when he called up James’ wife (a huge Stevie Wonder fan) to tell her that James loved her.

8. One Direction’s ‘No Control’ always needed the proper video treatment. So THANK THE LORD that Corden decided to choregraph a dance a routine for One Direction’s ‘No Control’ with One Direction. Oh, and check that DENIM.

9. When Adele rapped Minaj’s verse from Kanye’s ‘Monster’ and she SMASHED it. Is this the best moment on Carpool Karaoke yet? Probably. Adele is an incredible human being, and pretty much everything that comes out of her mouth is gold. Long live Adele.

10. When you’ve been on a lonnnggg road trip to San Francisco, there’s probably no better way to finish the day off than having a lil’ spoon with Chris Martin in bed. Right? We’re right. We know we’re right.
